A Wonky Finish

Most of my week was spent outside camping and finishing up the binding on my wonky blocks quilt. I'm not entirely certain if I like the quilting I did on this quilt. First it's hard to see what the quilting is, and second I'm not too happy with the way the variegated thread looks, I wonder if I should have gone with something solid that blended in... Oh well, I'm sure the little baby that this quilt is for will grow to like it (hahaha no pun intended :). But before I show you the completed quilt I thought I would share a photo of my little hooligans...

Jordan and Payton

Yeah they actually look like that more often than not... Anyhow here is that finished quilt! Yeah FINISH!

Here are some photo's of the back of the quilt... funny now that I see it in pictures I like it more hahaha.

About Me

I have 2 little brats that drive me crazy by playing dodgeball with their glass teaset (I honestly don't know why they did this). My girls are 7 and 8 years old and the 'what the heck is going on' of my life. I'm married to a man who deals with the tangled Christmas lights like a professional and who tries to listen to my quilt rants without rolling his eyes too much. I started quilting in May 2011, and have had to limit my quilting time to after 5pm since that day I realized my kids had eaten raw hotdogs for dinner and run their own bath.
